What Does It Matter Anyway?

As I go through life and am continually bombarded by ethical dilemmas, I am asked and am asking this question myself, "What does it matter, anyway?" Isn't that the premise of what the Serpent asked Eve in the Garden of Eden when he questioned what God had told her. Remember? He said, DID God really say that you were not to eat of ALL the trees in the garden? He added to what God had told Eve, and he twisted the truth. Yes, there was some truth to what he said, and that, like it does us many times, planted a horrible seed called "doubt" from which she plunged, not gingerly stepped, into disaster. Adam soon followed and all of mankind has paid the price along with their horror of leaving paradise into what we know today as mundane, work-for-a-living earthly existence with all of its briars, weeds and pain -our payment for following the thinking, deceptively dressed as truth, "What does it matter, anyway?" Follow the crowd and you soon find out as little Pinnochio did, as he watched his pants grow a tail and his mouth utter donkey sounds. The Bible tells us, warns us, begs us not to follow the wide road to destruction, but to look and seek for the narrow way, the way less traveled. Why is the road to destruction so broad? It MUST be because that is where most people head, it is easy, easy to see with our human eyes, requiring no faith, no pondering of the truth, no hard decisions, of right or wrong, good or evil. You can hear the last person on the road, that one just ahead of you hollering back, "What does it matter, anyway?"
